Description
Proposal: Remove ellipsis (...) wildcarding from the spec.
If there are any users of the feature I'd be interested in the use cases.
If the sense of the community is in agreement I'll make a pull request.
Context from @gcsl (1 Jun 2022):
"In our collection infrastructure we support gnmi path '*' wildcards on the
client side. Generally on the device side, we subscribe to top-level models or
an intermediate branch. The wildcard would be necessary if we intended to
filter a given model to a specific set of leaves only. I am not aware of any
'...' wildcard use anywhere. I had argued it was inefficient to implement and
offered limited utility. I had proposed removing it from the spec on a few
occasions and I think this would be one of the useful deletions prior to a gnmi
1.0 declaration."
